As with The Black Cab Sessions, The Fly's courtyard and the French site blogotheque.net, which likes to ﬁlm bands in vans, persuading music acts to perform acoustically in unusual places is quite the internet trend at the moment. The idea here is to kidnap touring bands and take them on a minor excursion into the deserted parkland and housing estates of London town and get them to play three songs while they shudder in the barren wind. In the case of sensitive Swedes Loney, Dear, this resulted in a small audience of gooﬁng teenagers, but apart from the occasional stray duck, most of these quaint indie types perform to no one at all. That's about to change with the posting of times and venues of forthcoming acts; hopefully applause won't ruin the whimsical appeal.
